Aroma: Juicy plums and smoke.
Flavour: Lean and dry medium-bodied red with a fresh green character and simple tannic finish.
Black pepper, redcurrants and bitter greens.
This is a youthful red wine and is perfect with meaty fish, pasta or other tomato-based dishes where fuller-bodied red wines are not wanted. I was surprised by the quality of this wine and recommend it.
